I agree - Gubby Allen.

In the late 1980s, the Pies drafting was excellent. They snared Craig Kelly, Graham Wright, Scott Russell, Tony Francis, Paul Williams and Troy Lehmann.

Since then, the drafting/recruiting has been woeful. They've picked up footballers who just have not been up to scratch. At the same time, they have got rid of players of the calibre of Brad Boyd, Brenton Sanderson, Powell, Brett James etc.

How can a recruiting staff that was so inspired become so insipid?
